The Big Match Preview: Wycombe vs Barnet

It’s been nine months since the Chairboys last recorded three back-to-back victories, but Gareth Ainsworth’s men have momentum behind them and are on the hunt for three more points to put the icing on the cake of a superb week so far.

Victories over Colchester and Crewe have highlighted the strength of Wanderers’ weaponry but also the determination in the character of the squad to recover from setbacks to see the job through.

Next in their sights are Barnet, who’ve only ever lost once at Adams Park in the EFL but arrive on the back of a tough run of form, not aided by a spate of injuries which have hindered Rossi Eames’s side from reaching a consistent level of performances and results.

However, their three defeats in the last four games have all been by the narrowest of margins and they’ll hope to have fortune fall on their side this time around as they seek a repeat of their 2-0 win in south Bucks last season.

Team newsDan Scarr is being assessed after leaving the pitch in Tuesday’s win due to an injury, while Matt Bloomfield, Paris Cowan-Hall and Luke O’Nien were unavailable in midweek along with the long-term absentee Scott Kashket.

Barnet are missing strikers John Akinde and Dave Tarpey, as well as keeper Jamie Stephens, full-backs Elliott Johnson and Richard Brindley, and midfielder Curtis Weston.

Man in the middleThere’ve been 49 yellow cards, one red card and a whopping 38 goals in Ross Joyce’s 10 games as referee so far this season.

He was last involved in a Chairboys fixture in March, when he officiated the 1-0 defeat to Notts County at Adams Park.
